Geothermal Energy – the old new frontier in harnessing earth’s green energy. We are happy to announce that Stellae Energy is working to identify end of life oil or gas wells to be repurposed for the generation of clean, dispatchable Geothermal Energy. The Energy Transition includes reusing existing infrastructure as […]

With an increased focus on the Energy Transition, the oil and gas industry has been considering what is possible with regards to more efficient, sustainable, and clean energy for production facilities such as Floating Production Storage and Offload (FPSO) vessels. There are a number of steps which can be done […]
As we have read over previous articles, there are many aspects of the Energy Transition that are able to be readily adopted by Extractive Industry companies. To recap, these are some of the recommended steps of the Energy Transition: Improve energy usage efficiencies; Reduce waste and GHG emissions; Implement Carbon […]
Almost a century and a half ago, a visionary man described a potential role for Hydrogen: As discussed in several recent articles, Hydrogen can be an attractive source of Clean Energy but it can also be an effective Energy Storage medium. Both the Upstream and Mining Industries have good applications […]
As discussed in the previous article, the Upstream and Mining industries have been working to accommodate sources of Renewable Power generation for their facilities. Wind Power is the topic of this article. For every amount of power generation generated from Renewables, a remote facility saves fuel costs and reducing conventional […]
The Upstream and Mining industries have been working to accommodate sources of Renewable Power generation for remote facilities including Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Power. Onshore energy facilities have been quite successful deploying Solar PV Power and recently offshore facilities have begun to deploy more of these systems, sometimes combined with wind […]
One of the first steps of the Upstream Energy Transition is to improve efficiencies of current facilities and particularly to reduce Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions. Decarbonisation was discussed previously so this article is particularly about reducing methane and volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions. The Upstream industry has a corporate responsibility […]
Beginning with the end in mind There are estimated to be over 8,200 wells in the North Sea, and of these, around 5,000 wells require abandonment in the next 10 – 15 years[1], at an estimated cost of over £30bn. In one of his ‘7 Habits of Highly Effective People’, […]
Here is David’s third book with more excellent IIOP work, focusing on the HSE aspects of modern day field developments and operations. Integrated Intelligent Operations & Production: Delivering increased safety
Here is David’s second compendium on some excellent IIOP work, this time focusing on Remote facility field developments. Integrated Intelligent Operations & Production: Remote Facility Developments
Below is the link to the first volume of some excellent IIOP work by our company’s co founder David Hartell focusing on oil and gas field developments. Integrated Intelligent Operations & Production: Oil & Gas Developments
